Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,

Choosing a university is one of the most important decisions a student makes for the simple reason that

the rewards or consequences of this decision remain influential for many years. It is therefore worthwhile

for you to take the time to select a school that not only provides numerous opportunities to further your

studies and enhance your career, but to also select a school that is known for its uniqueness, achievements

and reputation. With this in mind, I warmly invite you to visit Kozminski University, the only institution

in Central and Eastern Europe that has been awarded with three of the most prestigious international

accreditations available in academia: EQUIS, AACSB, and AMBA. This distinction (known globally as the

‘Triple Crown’) is currently held by only 73 universities worldwide and it guarantees the highest level

of education quality and institutional impact.

The ”Financial Times”, one of the world’s premier financial publications, also recognizes Kozminski

University and its programs – particularly the Master in Management and the Master in Finance and

Accounting – as being among the best on offer.

Every year our university continues its upward climb by hosting numerous international conferences and

seminars and providing diverse lectures delivered by prominent scientists, business leaders, Nobel Prize

winners, and representatives of foreign governments. Kozminski University is able to attract these

prominent thinkers and appliers because we are a world-renowned business/science center known for

our influential research and the development of economic science.

Put more succinctly, Kozminski University is an international institute based in the heart of Europe that

focuses on business, management, and law education. We combine theory with practice and deliver

programs in English and Polish to students from over 60 countries. In short, we not only teach, we also

create knowledge – and that means we can put you on the path to success. Come and check us out!

Professor Andrzej K. Koźmiński, Ph.D.

President of Kozminski University

The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) is one of the world’s oldest business school

accreditation bodies – and currently 5 percent of all business schools in the world hold an AACSB accreditation. Indeed,

to date, out of the world’s 13 600 business education institutions are accredited by the AASCB. Kozminski University

is the only university in Poland that holds this accreditation. By obtaining AACSB accreditation Kozminski University has

joined the group of such prestigious universities as Harvard, Yale or MIT.

For more information, visit www.aacsb.edu

The Association of MBAs (AMBA) confirms the highest quality of educational services amongst MBA programs.

An AMBA evaluation considers factors such as facility, programs, staff qualifications, and student achievements and only

240 of the business schools in the world are distinct enough to claim the AMBA accreditation. Kozminski University

earned its AMBA accreditation in June 2008.

For more information, visit www.mbaworld.com

Based in Brussels, the European Foundation for Management Development (EFMD) evaluates the quality

of a business school’s services and facilities and only awards its accreditation to the best. Currently, just 167 institutes

carry the EFMD’s prestigious EQUIS accreditation. Kozminski University is the first university in Central and Eastern

Europe to be awarded this distinction. In 2015 Kozminski University successfully passed the reaccreditation process

and obtained full 5-year accreditation rights.

TRIPLE CROWN

Amongst business school accreditations, the most difficult to acquire are EQUIS, AMBA, and AACSB (the so-called ‘Triple Crown’

of accreditations). Currently, only less than 80 out of 13600 business schools in the world hold these three accreditations. In 2011, Kozminski

University joined this prestigious group. What does this mean for prospective students? It guarantees the highest quality of education, which

meets the most rigorous internationally recognized standards – and it ensures that a Kozminski diploma is recognized in the business world.

We are the only University in Poland that holds these accreditations.

Prestige among Employers

FIRST PLACE FOR ALUMNI CAREERS

Kozminski University ranked first in the careers category among

all universities in the ”Financial Times” Global Masters in Management

Ranking 2012 listing. Organizers of the ranking evaluate the careers

of alumni three years after graduation and take into consideration

elements such as career development, current management positions,

and the prestige of the companies for which alumni work. Kozminski

University devotes a great deal of effort to teaching entrepreneurship,

which explains why so many of our alumni set up and quickly develop

their own businesses after graduation.

CONGRATULATIONS FROM EMPLOYERS

Kozminski University is the highest ranking Polish business university

according to the ”Financial Times”. This results in numerous letters

of congratulations from business leaders and professional association

representatives. In one such letter, Henryka Bochniarz, President of the

Polish Confederation of Private Employers (Lewiatan), wrote the

following:

„„

Kozminski also teaches the children of many Polish entrepreneurs,who subsequently assume managerial positions within their family-

run businesses. Among the many reasons Kozminski University

leads the global table in career rankings is its entrepreneurial spirit

and the fact that its host country – Poland – is the only European

country that maintained positive economic growth during the

infamous 2008-2012 global recession.

91% of our alumni find work within 90 days of graduation. Some of our students work during their studies!

”LIONS OF KOZMINSKI”

Initiated in 2005, the Kozminski University ‘Eagles of Success’ distinction is awarded every year to an outstanding graduate alumnus and a postgraduate alumnus. The purpose of the competition is to honor Kozminski graduates who have achieved outstanding success and who can serve as a role model for others. Beginning in 2013 the award changed its name to ”LIONS OF KOZMINSKI”.

Lewiatan constantly strives for the Polish educational system to be

formed in such a way that the knowledge and skills gained

by students remains consistent with the needs of employers. Only

in this way can education continue to modernize Poland... (and)

the presence of Kozminski University in the rankings of the best

European business schools proves that the Polish job market

appreciates the value of the education you provide.

Studying at KU was an amazing experience, intellectually, socially and culturally. The whole environment

was so diverse that I learned how to effectively interact with people from various cultural backgrounds.

Being a Kozminski student is not only a way to earn a reputable degree, but also a certain way of life. Beside

the less tangible things like cultural and social experiences, KU is also a place which helps one to thrive

intellectually. While doing the double degree program, I was given the opportunity to participate in serious

research. This exciting experience motivated me to start my doctoral studies. Even though I am doing this

in Germany, I will always have #KUpride.

Marcus Hülsdau

Alumni of Master in Management (Germany)

Kozminski University provides students with an educational experience that includes dedicated,

international faculty members who are academic leaders. It not only encourages students to reinforce

their communication and leadership as well as entrepreneurial skills, but also provokes them to engage

in a multitude of social activities. Along with business, I am convinced that knowledge in Finance and

Accounting will serve my target as a triumphant businesswoman. I firmly believe that you will enjoy the

approach of thriving for excellence with all your schoolfellows under Bachelor in Finance and Accounting

Program at Kozminski University.

Students’ Testimonials

The track I've chosen is characterized by dedicated students and top-level professors that foster

an environment for aspiring finance professionals. My reason for applying to Kozminski was due to the high

international school rankings. I really enjoy KU's practical approach towards learning. Solving business cases

with groups of students, gives us a great advantage tackling real life scenarios after graduation. My fellow

students come from all over the world, which makes class discussions and group work truly interesting.

We also have different academic backgrounds, that helps bring different school of thoughts to the table.

Our curriculum contains leadership development courses to help us succeed in management positions

WARSAW

Why Poland?

POLAND

Poland is one of the most exciting international locations to be in right

now. The country is seeing unprecedented economic growth and

is developing and modernizing at a remarkable pace. The warm

ambience of the people and culture can be felt throughout its many

cities. The capital of Warsaw is an economic hub seeing great investments

from some of the world’s largest firms. The cultural center of Krakow

to the south is a den of art, music, history, and jubilation. The bustling city

of Gdansk to the north connects the country by sea to the rest

of Europe and the world. The natural wonders of Poland also enhance its

beauty and wonder. The quiet mountain town of Zakopane is Poland’s

own winter wonderland, while the Mazury lake district is an outdoor

paradise in the summer for those seeking adventure or relaxation.

Poland enjoys both mountains and beaches and connects the West

to the East, making a perfect crossroads for people of all preferences.

Poland is at the heart of an economic resurgence following the financial

crisis from 2008. Recovery efforts for many western powers depend

on opportunities in Poland, so all eyes are fixed on this central European

nation. Poland has a thriving social life with more people showing

an outpouring of interest in the arts, literature, sciences, and exercise. The

country is, after all, the home of greats such as Frederic Chopin, Marie

Skłodowska-Curie, and Joseph Conrad. Poland also offers the perfect

blend of old and new. Home to quaint cottages and regal palaces, and

a country which also showcases perplexing post Soviet architecture set

in contrast with highly modern skyscrapers. Whether you’re looking for

eastern antiques or the newest gadgets from the west, Poland has it all.

WARSAW

Warsaw is a thriving economic metropolis that is quickly becoming

Central Europe’s own “city that never sleeps”. Pioneering Poland’s

economic growth in the 21st century, Warsaw is currently seeing

unprecedented investment from EU powers and the United States, and

many of the world’s biggest firms have major offices in the city. In Warsaw,

business is life, and on any given day the city hosts an eclectic mix of the

business world’s elites. Since the end of communism in Poland over

25 years ago, Warsaw has taken off as a financial powerhouse and shows

no signs of slowing down. For an up-and-coming CEO and for a budding

business student trying to find his niche, Warsaw is without a doubt

an enthralling place to be.

The city is teeming with social life of all sorts. The memory of the Warsaw

Uprising during World War II still rings deep in the hearts of many

Varsovians, who hold it dear as a sign of fighting for what is right,

no matter the odds. This lively spirit is certainly evident today, and the

city has a uniquely creative character to show for it. Arts, music, and

culture all show a haunting mix of traditional and modern characteristics,

offering something that appeals to everyone. The city hosts two football

clubs who play in the Polish premiere league, and it is still enjoying the

experience it had as a host city during the Euro 2012 Championship.

Warsaw’s residents are an active sort, so doing anything under the stars

is definitely an option.

needs and expectations of companies and they are directed

at corporations which aspire to raise staff ’s performance by developing

their skills and knowledge. Since the programs are tailor made, they

Our stay in Costa Rica, in one of the most beautiful countries in the region of Americas was a wonderful and fruitful experience. The possibility of participating in an international exchange resulted in first-hand experience of studying at the best business school of Latin America and one of the best in the world. Thanks to the exchange program we learned a lot and we were finally able to use what we have learned during our studies, enhance our business network and understand the business, economic and social realities of Latin America. Moreover, the semester abroad in such a different environment in comparison to a European one helped us to discover ourselves more than ever before and step out of our comfort zone.

EUROPEAN CREDIT TRANSFER SYSTEM

§ A credit system is a systematic way of describing an educational

program by attaching credits to its components. ECTS is based on the

convention that 60 credits measure the workload of a full-time

student during one academic year. The student workload of a full-

-time study program in Europe amounts in most cases to 36/40

weeks per year and in those cases one credit stands for 24 to 28

working hours. Workload refers to the notional time an average

learner is expected to complete the required learning outcomes.

§ Thanks to ECTS Kozminski University students can complete study

programs abroad and transfer the credit they have gained so that

it is included in their program of studies. Same is true for incoming

exchange students who can complete courses at Kozminski

University and the credit for those courses will be honored by their

home universities.
